Oceana Cottages

Have been coming here for about 15 years with my family, and before that came every year as a kid with my parents. The cabins are rustic and have not changed much in 50 years. There are no TVs - which is a godsend! I wish there was no wi-fi, but at least it is spotty enough that it keeps screen-time to a minimum. The beach is right out the door and down a short staircase. There's usually a moderate amount of seaweed up and down the beach which comes and goes with the wind and the tides. The water temperatures vary from icy to warm, and from crystal clear to murky. People do fish from the beach, but there's usually better luck on the ocean side or from a boat. The most common sea life along the shore are crabs, hermit crabs, and small fish. It's a great place for families with kids, as your kids can wander far down the beach and still be in sight. The same people tend to come back for the same week(s) every year, so you get to know one another and it's like a seasonal family! The Bento family, who ran the place as White Village for about 30 years or more, have just sold the business to another family member who has changed the name to Oceana Cottages. Don't know why. It's kind of sad for those of us who have been coming for decades to say goodbye to the Bentos and White Village. We hope the new owners will not make any drastic changes! WE LOVE IT JUST AS IT IS!!!
